Amazing
My whole life I used the cheap hole punches. I finally decided to buy these one day to see if these were really as great as the description sounded. The first use I knew that I wasted my entire life on those cheap hole punches. This HS punch requires the slightest squeeze and it goes right through the leather, no more jagged or uneven holes. I now save so much time with this product. It is worth every penny.

Best Hole Punch
The design of the Sprenger Hole Punch makes it very effective with less effort needed. Actually, I've never been able to punch a hole successfully until I borrowed the Sprenger. It worked so I bought my own!

So glad I took the plunge!
I love this punch so much better than any other I have ever used. Super easy. But so expensive! took me years to give in. finally did it when punching the holes in several items meant not having to buy three new sets of leathers and a new bridle.

This is the best hole punch i've ever used. Very easy to use. Even my 10 year old could use it.

Cut's through some tough leather!
This is a really good whole punch and handy. It has really cut through some thick and tough leather too! I use it for belts as well as bridles, halters, martingales! Keep it handy by the show ring as you just don't know when your going to have to make adjustments to tack last minute! One thing though is one of the smaller punches did chip, and leather parts get stuck and are hard to get out in my opinion. Wish it was a little cheaper but overall its good and handy!

Great hole punch
Punches holes in leather without breaking your hand or should I say
without needing a vice grip.

Finally, a hole punch that works!
This is an expensive item, but if you, like me, have been struggling for years to make useable holes in leather and biothane, this is just the thing! Lovely German workmanship and easy to operate; this baby lives in its plastic bag inside its box. I love it!

User Friendly
I have been looking for a good quality hole punch for several months. Others I have found seemed cheaply made and prone to breaking or possibles resulting in a sore hand! No so with this hole punch! It seems to be of great quality, it's EASY to use and punches hole with minimal pressure! Worth the money!

Best you can buy!
This punch is heads above the rest. When my last hole punch broke, I used my trainer's HS punch to install plates on my halters. After one punch I was sold. For a woman I am quite strong, but I still had trouble with a traditional hole punch. This makes even thick leather a breeze. I have many HS products, and they are all so well made that they are well worth the extra money upfront.
Since I know that everyone loves this punch, I got my last name put on it, and Smartpak did a great job. Looks nice and protects my investment.

Simply the best!
This is by far the best leather hole punch on the market. It's designed to make clean cuts with minimal effort. Well worth the price.

Easily punches through even thick, tough leather. I have two and also gave one to my mother as a gift. She can use it with no problems even with arthritis in her hands.

BEST Hole Punch
There is NO comparison. This IS the best hole punch. Easy to use, punches cleanly, hefty enough to do the job but does not require a lot of hand power. Although this is more pricey than other punches, it will far outlast the cheaply made ones, and is so much easier to use. This is my 3rd HS punch, and this time, I had it engraved so it won't wander away!

Best Hole Punch Ever!
Love Love Love! Should have bought this one the first time, but no I had to buy the cheaper versions that did not work. Do it right the first time, you will NOT be sorry! This is actually the second one I have bought ... a Christmas gift for my trainer ... tired of watching her use the old cheap one that never works! This is a Quality Product!

Good Stuff.
I've used them 4 times. They make a clean punch. They are heavy duty and should last a very long time if you take care of them.

Wow! This cuts like butter. I was really impressed. It makes standard hole punches obsolete.

Very Good!
I don't regret buying this hole punch! Very easy use, don't need to squeeze the handle too much for it to work like the other hole punch's. It has many settings which is useful for all my bridles, saddles or anything really (even a personal belt!).

5 stars for this leather punch
I've had a lot of punches over the years. Most too too much squeeze strength and most left uneven punches. This has the ease of squeeze. Having had two surgeries on my hands, this was most welcome as a leather worker suffering from arthritis. If only you had a really easy can opener, I would be in heaven

So Easy!
Thought about a cheaper punch from Home Depot, but after reading reviews here, this seemed the way to go. Have had it a couple of weeks. What fun to use - even my 11-yr old daughter can easily punch holes through her horse gear. Wish it weren't quite so expensive, but expecting to get years use out of it.

SOOOO easy!
My mom has notoriously weak hands, so I was in the market for an easy-to-use hole punch that even she could manage. I found it! Even my little sister can use it, without a problem. I got it engraved, and it looks so much more professional than our usual blue tape labeling!

Dont settle for cheap imitations!
Dont waste your money on the cheaper, hardware store version of this hole punch. Even a weakling like me can use it easily! Makes nice clean holes with very little effort. Worth the extra cost.

Only hole puncher worth buying
Ok, it is a little pricey. Thats actually what took me so long to order one. I couldn't imagine a hole punch being worth $50, but let me tell you, it is.
First of all, it actually punches the holes. No struggling, twisting, pulling, or hiring a weight lifter, to punch a hole in my leathers. Second, the it punches the holes very cleanly. Third, its super easy to use and to get the desired hole size.
This is one of those items that is just worth having even with the price. It is a fantastic tool to keep around my barn and in my trailer.
I would hands down buy another one, and I will recommend them to my friends.

Easy to Use
Easy to use - definately takes less pressure to punch a hole (versus the less expensive brands). A bit pricey.

You Need This
Every barn should have two pairs. Inevitably, they will magically sprout legs and escape, so you'll want to have a back-up. This is my third pair and I was happy to pay a little more to have SmartPak engrave them - thank you SmartPak! These punches allow even a child to pop a hole through very thick leather.

I should have bought this the first time!
I have gone through several of the various cheaper hole punches. I should have bought this one the first time. It is absolutely worth every penny! The holes actually revolve from small to large unlike the others and it is easy to get the hole exactly where you want it since it doesn't slip when you punch the hole.
